Hi All.. First time to post here. I just ordered my first batch of supplies, ie..molds, oils and some M&P base.I ordered from Soap Crafters. I didnt get a chance to order colors. Very expensive. Can I use food coloring? Where is the best places to get receipes and supplies. Thank a bunch Swifta

True, food coloring will not work well. It is not made to dissolve in soap. I recommend some tint in MP soap, if it is a clear soap. (If you drop the soap and can't see it, it is a slipping hazard.) I like the powdered colorants from Brambleberry.com. They are less messy than liquids and last a long time. They are also quite appealing to the eye.
